Iran begins week of mourning as Khamenei funeral draws world leaders

Iran inaugurates a week of funeral ceremonies for late Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, with his coffin in Tehran’s Grand Mosalla as top officials and dozens of foreign delegations attend.

Houthis widen Iran conflict with missiles aimed at Israeli sites

Houthis, allied with Iran, claim ballistic missiles hit sensitive Israeli military sites, expanding the US-Israel campaign against Iran; Israel says it intercepted one missile; the conflict threatens Red Sea and Hormuz chokepoints and global trade, with attacks also hitting a Saudi airbase and Kuwait’s radar. Pakistan hosts a regional meeting with Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Egypt to seek de-escalation, while Ukraine-UAE defense ties and reported US cluster-munition use add to the volatility and the risk of broader regional escalation.

Iran Opens Hormuz Strait to Non-Hostile Vessels Amid War Turmoil

The stance comes amid the US-Israel war on Iran and broader energy-market volatility, with officials warning prices could rise if the strait stays largely closed. President Trump said talks to end the conflict are underway.
